I Dined at Travis Kelce & Patrick Mahomes’ $800 Steakhouse — 1587 Prime Was More Than Just Dinner, It Was an Experience

Getting a reservation at 1587 Prime, the new steakhouse from Chiefs legends Travis Kelce and Patrick Mahomes, is as coveted as a ticket to Taylor Swift’s Eras Tour. The buzz started before the doors even opened in late September 2024, with tables fully booked through October within minutes of reservations dropping. My group was lucky enough to score a Saturday night spot—timed perfectly with a Chiefs game in Kansas City.

Atmosphere: Lively, Intimate, and Thoughtfully Curated

From the moment you step inside, 1587 Prime makes it clear you’re in for something special. The entrance greets you with impressive glass-front displays of prime meat cuts, an illuminated marble staircase, and walls lined with hundreds of bottles of wine. The ambiance is elegant yet inviting, with a lively energy that never sacrifices intimacy.

Dining guidelines set the tone: business casual or dressy evening wear is requested, and children under 16 aren’t allowed after 7 p.m. The result? A top-tier, adult-friendly experience.

Live Music & Local Vibes

Every night features live musical performances, and the band during our dinner was fantastic—entertaining but never overwhelming. They alternated sets with a curated playlist of jazz and R&B, prompting our group to pause and appreciate the music several times.

Cocktails: Kansas City Spirit in a Glass

The cocktail menu is a playful tribute to the Chiefs and Kansas City. Drinks ($18–$25) are named after Mahomes, Kelce, and their leading ladies, including:
– Showtime (Mahomes’ nickname)
– Big Yeti (Kelce’s nickname)
– Queen B (for Brittany Mahomes)
– The Alchemy (after a Taylor Swift song)

A martini cart offers custom-crafted drinks, alongside mocktails, beers, and an extensive wine list. Each cocktail comes with a special presentation, elevating the experience even further.

Food: Upscale Steakhouse Classics with Local Flair

The menu is approachable for an upscale steakhouse, with appetizers ($16–$40), market-priced seafood, and steaks as the centerpiece. We started with:
– Togarashi Fried Chicken ($25): Five strips with truffle, hot, and wasabi honey sauces—each delicious.
– Jumbo Lump Crab Cakes ($36): Three cakes, packed with crabmeat and paired with tartar sauce and tomato relish.

For entrées, I chose twin lobster tails ($76), while my husband ordered the 6-ounce Japanese A5 wagyu strip ($125), adding the tableside flambé ($27). Staff rolled a cart to our table, flambéing brandy, bone-marrow butter, and herbs before drizzling it over the steak—a showstopper.

Other entrées included diver scallops ($48) and another wagyu strip with bleu-cheese butter ($7). Each dish was outstanding: the steak and scallops melted in our mouths, and the lobster had a smoky char.

Sides are shareable; we split truffle fries ($16), honey-glazed grilled carrots ($16), and a twice-baked potato ($24). Every bite was memorable.

Dessert: Victory Formation

For dessert, we ordered two cast-iron chocolate-chip cookies with vanilla ice cream ($16 each). Served warm in miniature skillets, they were gooey, rich, and perfectly paired with creamy ice cream—a sweet finish to an epic meal.

Details That Delight: Chiefs, Local Businesses, and Thoughtful Touches

It’s clear how much thought went into every detail. There’s a mirror with perfect lighting for selfies, and the menu is filled with nods to the Chiefs and Kansas City. Mahomes’ signature drink features Coors Light syrup, and you can add a Mahomes ketchup flight to your steak. Garage Beer, owned by the Kelce brothers, is on tap. Local businesses are highlighted, with desserts from McLain’s Bakery and drinks from Boulevard Brewing Co.

The Price Tag: A Splurge Worth Every Penny

Our group of four spent just under $800 before tip for six cocktails, two appetizers, four entrées, three sides, two desserts, and a few add-ons. Thanks to a $50 online offer, my husband and I paid about $427 for our half.

Is it expensive? Absolutely. Would I order this much on a regular night? No. But for a special occasion, the experience was worth every dollar

Final Verdict: More Than Just a Meal

1587 Prime isn’t just a restaurant—it’s a celebration of Kansas City, the Chiefs, and the personalities behind it. From themed cocktails to flawless service, live music to Instagram-worthy details, every moment feels curated for fans and foodies alike.

Would I go back? In a heartbeat. For anyone seeking a meal that’s as memorable as it is delicious, 1587 Prime is a must-visit. If you’re lucky enough to snag a reservation, prepare for a night that’s truly prime.
